    Martin's 197 Lux Project

    Martin's 172 Exclusive

    Latest update on it! The car came with an invoice from when the previous owner "recommissioned" it as it had been off the road for about 10 years, this included a Battery, full service, fuel drained and replaced, timing belt change, MOT, etc etc - Not much change from a grand but the Aux belt...

    USB on RS 220 trophy

    Does Rlink actually let you do that? I thought it was just a USB port for USB mass storage?

    1.2 tce boost pressure

    I'm sure they run 0.5bar from factory which sounds like where you are when it settles. They do have an over boost function, from the press release..

    ph1 172 cold air feed to airbox question

    This is driving me mad!! my ph1 came with a cone filter so I've sourced and fitted a ph1 airbox for it. Now the new airbox came with the cold air feed which i realised id most likely need to remove the bumper to fit, so fast forward a few months i now have the bumper off and i cant for the life...

    Suspension creak - anyone had similar?

    Spray up the inner anti roll bar bushes first before you do the arms just to confirm its not them since its an easy job to rule them out, had it quite a bit from them before.

    Auxiliary belt change

    Are you doing the cambelt at the same time? worth doing the full job so that side of the engine is taken care of - in which case id be doing cambelt kit, aux belt kit (kit being the auto tensioner and any idlers etc) and pop a water pump on it. I wouldnt worry about the crank damper pulley...

    Rs 220 replacement part number

    Lowering my mk2, 1.2

    poor quality springs more than likely, designed to fit more than one model and then when fitted to a 1.2 8v the front sits higher due to less weight.

    Oil Filters

    Because of postage your probably better popping into your local dealer, but if you need a service kit then £45 delivered for a genuine filter, sump washer and oil from RPD isnt bad value! https://renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/parts/service-parts/renault-clio-172-182-engine-oil-with-filter/

    I'm laughing away here as that is exactly what I'm doing 😂 - 6 weeks in, DIY, being a dad, selling cars, managing to make just enough for me to entertain myself. I've said I'm taking the summer off, if at the end of the summer I've managed to keep myself earning enough to live, I'll see if I...
